Just watched an interview with Colin Bond and he dropped the "we drove a bellett" in 66 and 67 at Bathurst " but we can't count those years. Nice to get a mention but with a slap in the face.
They also have shown a couple of Belletts on the old footage - great to see them rippin around the top of The Mountain.
and that's Colin Bond for u in a nut shell. he's an asshole in my book, and has either totally denied any link to Bellett's in the past, or just canned them... when u'd think he'd acknowledge them as THE car that got him a start in the race that lead to bigger things in the following years, so without the Bellett he'd be more of a nothing than he already is.
I did notice alot of the other old drivers interviewed on the weekend mentioned the car's they first drove on the hill, yet Bond was the only one to run his one down too...
U should never forget where u came from, or those that are there now will forget u... So yep... Colin who?
